13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs. 14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened. 15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them. 16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him. 17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad? 18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days? 19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people: 20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him. 21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done. 22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre; 23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive. 24 And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not. 25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: 26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? 27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. 28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further. 29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them. 30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. 31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. 32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?

13 En twee van hulle was dieselfde dag op pad na 'n dorp wat agt myl van Jerusalem af was, met die naam van ÂmmaÂs.

14 En hulle was in gesprek met mekaar oor al hierdie dinge wat voorgeval het.

15 En terwyl hulle praat en mekaar ondervra, kom Jesus self nader en loop met hulle saam.

16 Maar hulle oë is weerhou, sodat hulle Hom nie kon herken nie.

17 En Hy sê vir hulle: Watter woorde is dit wat julle met mekaar loop en wissel, en waarom is julle bedroef?

18 En die een wie se naam Kl,opas was, antwoord en sê vir Hom: Is U alleen 'n vreemdeling in Jerusalem en weet U nie van die dinge wat in hierdie dae daarin gebeur het nie?

19 En Hy sê vir hulle: Watter dinge? En hulle antwoord Hom: Die dinge aangaande Jesus, die Nasar,ner, wat 'n profeet was, kragtig in werk en woord voor God en die hele volk;

20 en hoe ons owerpriesters en owerstes Hom oorgelewer het tot die doodstraf en Hom gekruisig het.

21 En ons het gehoop dat dit Hy was wat Israel sou verlos; maar nou is dit vandag, met dit alles, die derde dag vandat dit plaasgevind het.

22 Maar sommige vroue uit ons het ons ook ontstel nadat hulle vroeg by die graf was;

23 en toe hulle sy liggaam nie kry nie, het hulle gekom en gesê dat hulle ook 'n gesig gesien het van engele wat sê dat Hy lewe.

24 En sommige van die wat saam met ons was, het na die graf gegaan en dit net so gevind soos die vroue ook gesê het; maar Hom het hulle nie gesien nie.

25 En Hy sê vir hulle: o Onverstandiges, met harte wat traag is om te glo alles wat die profete gespreek het!

26 Moes die Christus nie hierdie dinge ly en in sy heerlikheid ingaan nie?

27 En Hy het begin van Moses en al die profete af en vir hulle uitgelê in al die Skrifte die dinge wat op Hom betrekking het.

28 Daarop kom hulle naby die dorp waarheen hulle op reis was, en Hy het gemaak of Hy verder wou gaan;

29 maar hulle het by Hom aangedring en gesê: Bly by ons, want dit is amper aand en die dag het gedaal; en Hy het ingegaan om by hulle te bly.

30 En toe Hy met hulle aan tafel was, neem Hy die brood en dank; en Hy breek dit en gee dit aan hulle.

31 Toe is hulle oë geopen en hulle het Hom herken, en Hy het uit hulle gesig verdwyn.

32 En hulle sê vir mekaar: Was ons hart nie brandende in ons toe Hy met ons op die pad gepraat en vir ons die Skrifte uitgelê het nie?
